==Geography== ===Westeros=== [[File:World map.png|300px|thumb|The Summer Sea is located between [[Westeros]], [[Essos]], and [[Sothoryos]].]] The Summer Sea stretches eastward from [[Westeros]] around the southern coast of [[Essos]] and the northern coast of [[Sothoryos]].<ref>''[[A Dance with Dragons]]'', [[Map of Valyria (A Dance with Dragons)|Map of Valyria]]</ref> The [[Arbor]] and the [[Redwyne Straits]] are found off the southwestern coast of Westeros, between the Summer and [[Sunset Sea]]s. Also in the southern [[Reach]] is [[Sunhouse]]. Places along the southern coast of [[Dorne]] include [[Starfall]], [[Salt Shore]], [[Lemonwood]], [[Sunspear]], and the [[Water Gardens]]. Dornish rivers flowing into the Summer Sea include the [[Torentine]], the [[Brimstone]], and the [[Greenblood]].{{ref|TLOIAF|Westeros}} [[Shark]]s and [[kraken]] are common in the seas south of Dorne.{{ref|TWOIAF|Dorne}} During [[autumn]], fierce storms arise in the warm Summer Sea and head north to the [[narrow sea]] and the [[stormlands]].{{ref|TWOIAF|The Stormlands}} ===Islands=== Just east of Dorne, the Summer Sea is separated from the [[narrow sea]] to the north by the island chain known as the [[Stepstones]]. South of Westeros and the Stepstones are the [[Summer Isles]], east of which are [[Naath]] and the [[Basilisk Isles]].{{ref|TLOIAF|The Known World}} It is unknown how far south the western Summer Sea extends. Explorers from the Summer Isles may have charted the southern sea, but they are protective of their findings.{{ref|TWOIAF|Beyond the Free Cities: Sothoryos}} ===Sothoryos=== South of the Basilisk Isles is the continent of [[Sothoryos]], with [[Basilisk Point]] and [[Wyvern Point]]. The ruins of [[Zamettar]] are located at the mouth of the [[Zamoyos]], and the ruins of [[Gorosh]] are also found in northern Sothoryos.{{ref|TLOIAF|The Known World}} ===Essos=== East of Westeros and north of Sothoryos is the continent of [[Essos]]. The island city of [[Lys]] is found in the Summer Sea south of the [[Disputed Lands]]. East of the [[Orange Shore]] is the mouth of the [[Rhoyne]] with the ruins of [[Sarhoy]] and the city of [[Volantis]],{{ref|TLOIAF|Free Cities}} and then further east are the [[Smoking Sea]] and the ruined [[Valyrian peninsula]].{{ref|TLOIAF|Central Essos}} East of the peninsula is the [[Isle of Cedars]], with [[Slaver's Bay]] to the north and the [[Gulf of Grief]] at the south. Continuing east along the Summer Sea is [[Old Ghis]] in [[Ghiscar]], and then [[New Ghis]] and [[Ghaen]] are separated from the mainland by the [[Ghiscari Strait]].{{ref|TLOIAF|Central Essos}} East of Ghiscar is the [[red waste]], with [[Port Yhos]] and [[Qarth]] being found on the Summer Sea. Also on the southern coast are the ruins of [[Vaes Orvik]] and [[Qarkash]].{{ref|TLOIAF|Central Essos}} ===Jade Gates=== The eastern Summer Sea ends at the isle of [[Great Moraq]], near which are [[Vahar]] and [[Lesser Moraq]]. North of Great Moraq are the [[Jade Gates]] and Qarth, while south of the great isle are the [[Cinnamon Straits]]. East of Great Moraq is the [[Jade Sea]].{{ref|TLOIAF|Central Essos}}{{ref|AWOIAF|Summer Sea}}
